What does this new nation look like from the perspective of ordinary citizens? In Lyrical Nationalism in Post-Apartheid Namibia, Wendi Haugh provides an ethnographic portrayal of the nation as imagined by people living in the former ethnic homeland of Ovamboland, with a particular focus on the lyrics of songs composed and performed by Catholic youth. The author argues that these youth draw on conflicting ideologies--hierarchical and egalitarian, nationalist and cosmopolitan--from multiple sources to construct a multi-faceted sense of national identity. She reveals how their vision of the nation--framed as neutrally national--is deeply rooted in specific local histories and cultures [Publisher description] 650 0 $a Catholic youth $z Namibia $x History and criticism. $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Contemporary Christian music $z Namibia $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Music $x Social aspects $z Namibia. 650 0 $a Nationalism in music. 650 0 $a Nationalism $z Namibia. 941 $a 1 952 $l PQAX094 $d 20231214043924.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=D4D24FE272D811EDA0B05B7C49ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
